The local picture in San Ramon
Most homes have slab foundations. DSRSD delivers recycled water for irrigation in Dougherty Valley.
Bishop Ranch is a large business park. Garage and attic installs are common here, and a drain pan under the tank helps protect ceilings and floors from a slow leak. Dougherty Valley was built mostly since 2000.
Sediment still builds up in tanks over time, so a yearly flush helps a tank run quieter and last longer. City Center Bishop Ranch opened in 2018.
Who handles what in San Ramon
